The gender-roles are so mixed-up. Clearly, PROTECTION is the man's job. A cowardly man is not worth much. I would have left him too. My dad was a coward too, hiding behind me. It was repellent.
But that's not what i said, is it? I admire the girlfriend for being so ferocious. And yet, i comforted the young man... I care for him too tho and he'd just helped me out earlier today by lending me his pool-house key fob...
Emotions are so messy...

I agree with you about gender roles 100%. Weak men turn me off. At this point I wonder if I can ever get in the kind of relationship I want to be in. I’ve left three men myself .
